Description

Where professional-grade video conversion is paramount, the Kiloview N50 12G-SDI/USB to NDI Bidirectional Converter stands out as an essential tool for broadcast, live production, and medical imaging professionals. Harnessing the power of leading FPGA technologies, this converter boasts an advanced-level AVC/HEVC algorithm and a proprietary NDI algorithm, ensuring seamless encoding and decoding for IP-based video transmission.The N50 is adept at handling both NDI High Bandwidth and NDI HX2/3 formats, utilizing H.264/H.265 for 12G-SDI format encoding/decoding. This versatility ensures that the converter meets a wide array of demands, making it a flexible solution for various applications.In encoding mode, the N50 effortlessly transforms a 4K 12G-SDI video signal into an NDI and NDI HX stream, while its decoding capabilities allow it to automatically adapt to the required NDI and NDI HX format. The device maintains ultra-low latency of less than 80ms, a critical feature for real-time broadcasting and live event streaming.The N50's pro-level color performance is unmatched, supporting the professional YCbCr 4:2:2 color space and a 10-bit color depth, with the option for the common 8-bit color depth. This ensures that the converter delivers higher color fidelity and image quality, meeting the stringent standards of the broadcast and medical industries.User experience is at the forefront of the N50's design. It features a large color LCD screen, allowing users to monitor unit parameters conveniently. The screen doubles as a tally display, complementing the small tally on the back panel for real-time PVW or PGM status checks. A scroll wheel provides intuitive navigation, enabling users to customize settings, toggle power, set quick shortcuts, and control video sources with ease.Audio capabilities are robust, with support for 12G-SDI embedded audio and 3.5mm analog audio encoding/decoding. The N50 also accommodates an extended USB audio interface, such as a USB headset, facilitating real-time communication among operators using the Kiloview Intercom System (KIS).For camera control, the N50 offers PTZ control through USB to serial RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 and supports network control protocols, including Sony Visca, PELCO-D, and PELCO-P, for external PTZ management.The N50's power supply options include PoE (IEEE 802.3AT) and DC 12V. With dual Ethernet interfaces, one supporting PoE, the device simplifies setup by combining power supply and network transmission through a single network cable. Additionally, it can be powered by a portable charger or camera battery for on-the-go use.Recording is made easy with the N50's TF storage extension, allowing for direct encoding of NDI video to a TF card in MOV format. This local recording feature mitigates the risk of video frame loss due to network issues.Central management is streamlined with the Kilolink Server, which enables optimization of media transmission across Kiloview products and provides comprehensive...
